  • Travel Decoded With James Hammond - Nomadic Diaries
    May 20 2024
    I was recently a guest on Doreen's podcast Nomadic Diaries and had a great time; check it out!

    Join us for an inspiring conversation with globetrotter James Hammond, as Doreen delves into his transformation from a classic backpacker to an advocate for slow travel and cultural immersion covering work visas and digital visas.

    James is a podcast producer, writer and travel expert. Doreen, the host, admits that she was extraordinarily chatty in this episode....sorry James!
    In this episode, you'll discover:
    👣 James's evolution from his first hedonistic journey to embracing a purpose-driven path as a digital nomad, seeking to challenge misconceptions and truly connect with diverse cultures.
    🌍 Insights into navigating the world with work permits, the digital nomad lifestyle, and how pursuing work-visa opportunities in countries like New Zealand, Canada, and Japan can shape your travel experiences.
    🤝 The imperative role of cultural mentorship, empathy, and the pursuit of personal growth alongside geographic exploration.
    🔑 Three Key Takeaways for Nomads and Aspiring Travelers:
    1. Slow and steady wins the race - Embrace slow travel to forge more meaningful connections and immerse yourself fully in each culture.
    2. Home is where the heart is - Recognize the importance of a home base and unravelling emotional baggage for a sustainable nomadic lifestyle.
    3. Personal growth precedes travel triumphs - Travel is an incredible tool for expansion, but it's essential to address personal issues for transformative experiences.
    Don't miss this deep dive into the nomadic lifestyle that transcends the allure of bucket-list ticks and embraces the richness of global citizenship.
    Favorite Quote from this episode:

    "Travel is not about merely seeing new places, but about challenging misconceptions, connecting deeply with local cultures, and realizing that empathy, understanding, and less fear can transform the way we interact with the world." The outstanding quote of the day.

  • Episode 145 - Travelling With Scott Gurian - Emergency Evacuation On The Mongol Rally
    May 13 2024
    Hello, and welcome to number 145. This week, I had the pleasure of interviewing Scott Gurian, a journalist, adventure traveller, podcaster, and reporter. Scott joined me to discuss his adventures on the Mongol Rally, visiting Chornobyl, witnessing an Ayahuasca Retreat in Peru, and more. I begin the episode by asking how Scott got interested in travel and where his early journey took him. One of the stories was about Mexico but not Cancun for Spring Break. We also talk about Scott's podcast, Far From Home, which is a travel podcast that immerses the listener in the travel experience. I have a clip from Scott's Ayahuasca Retreat embedded in the episode.Scott is a fantastic storyteller, podcaster, and journalist, and his stories are captivating. I absolutely love his podcast work, as you really feel part of the journey. Below are some of the links to get acquainted with Scott's work. This is a fantastic episode to get those travel juices flowing! Enjoy.

  • How Australia Changed My Life
    May 7 2024
    Hello, and welcome to my next solo episode. This one is a little story about how Australia changed my life in 2010; going on to my year-long work permit in 2013/14 and my two visits since then. Australia was the gateway to me experiencing a completely new country outside of Europe and also presented an opportunity to earn some decent money to travel more of the world. I talk about this and more in this episode, and I always long to be back there every week. Enjoy. Be inspired!Patreon Shout-OutThanks to Laura Hammond for supporting this podcast.
